PREGNANCY

I'll be honest, being pregnant is something I've enjoyed! I can't say it was easy, it comes with many challenges, but somehow they are overcome with the knowledge there is a little human being growing inside of you. It can only be understood by another pregnant woman, as there is nothing you can possibly compare this amazing feeling to! I hope my articles on pregnancy and birth can give you a little glimpse into what it was like for our family to anticipate the birth of our children. I share some research I have done as well over the years in our quest to have natural pregnancies and births with minimal intervention.
